Interesting vs Interested

People are saturated with “interesting” things on social media.

Yet few stop to think about what “interesting” means.

When you create “interesting”, you satiate curiosities, dragging folks into more scrolling. “Oh that’s interesting. And so is that. And so is that. And so is that.”

When you create “interested”, you capture an interest and nurture it as someone becomes increasingly happy, educated, or both. “I’m really interested in this, I wonder where it leads.”

Both introduce your curiosity to the unexplored.

One of them changes people for the better, is more fulfilling, and could be an excellent foundation for your venture.

Which is it to be?
